Hello, I'm Larissa

I solve operational problems for product businesses.

Pricing that doesn't bleed profit. Production workflows that don't break. Systems that scale without chaos.

Background

I spent 15 years building operations systems for luxury fashion brands and product startups. I know operations, supply chain, production planning, and strategic systems inside out. I know what breaks and why.

I also ran my own product business for 3 years. That experience taught me exactly where operational challenges hit hardest—particularly for solo operators working with real constraints (time, budget, limited resources).

What I bring

• 15 years solving operational bottlenecks in product development

• Deep understanding of production realities (the unglamorous parts included)

• Hands-on experience with AI tools and workflow automation

• Direct experience running a product business (not just consulting from the outside)

• The ability to spot patterns before they become disasters

• Willingness to test things publicly and share what I learn—failures included

What I help with

Operations strategy for product businesses:
Pricing that actually works. Production workflows that don't break. Validation frameworks before you build. System design that scales without £50k enterprise software.

AI implementation that actually improves efficiency:
Not "ChatGPT for emails"—actual workflow automation for design, production coordination, and operational tasks. Testing what works vs what's just hype.

Strategic planning for creative professionals:
Career transitions. Portfolio problem-solving. Building something sustainable that fits your actual life.

What I'm doing in 2026

Testing operational frameworks and AI tools through real work:

• 20 conversations with product business owners about operational bottlenecks

• AI implementation experiments on real workflows (documenting what works vs noise)

• Building frameworks from 15 years of seeing the same problems break repeatedly

• Publishing everything weekly on Substack—practical insights, no fluff
